how does a cold crust form on a glowing hot sphere at 5000°C

How does the microwave burn the inside of my burrito but the outside is cold cardboard?
Unrelated mechanisms, similar result.

nothing is keeping it hot. it's just residual heat.
as the heat dissipates it cools away from the center.
you should probably just forget about questions you have and spend your day playing Call of Duty 52: Pay more Money.

Phases of matter not only depend on temperature but also pressure. It's for this reason that water evaporates earlier on the Everest than on the sea level. Also, you get different structures depending on temperature and pressure. After all, what it is a phase of matter but how much the atoms and molecules can vibrate.

It’s currently unknown but perhaps planets can die like stars?

that model of the earth is pure conjecture with no basis in observation and is almost certainly wrong.
geologists can make big boastful claims about knowing whats at the center of the planet because they know for sure that nobody will ever be able to make observations which disprove their idiotic unscientific guesses. thats their way of bypassing the scientific method and proving to the world that they aren't real scientists

It's like a gas and liquid at the same time.

Check your skin temperature with a thermometer and then inside your mouth. You can do this one yourself!

Have you even checked if your household thermometer is calibrated?
Science is only done by institutions cutie.

Unironically integrate the heat transfer gradient. While you're at it see if you can estimate how much energy is being released through nuclear decay, it's straightforward once the boundary conditions are set.

heat radiates off into space
